Synopsis

Spoiler shield

It’s summer in the hood. As every year, there are those who stay, those who leave, and... those who should have left. Some, like Joe Hustleton, work «under the table» in the rich neighborhoods and fall head over heels for a pretty girl. Some, like Tony Pepperoni, play businessman and spend the summer fleeing a local gang leader and a psychopathic girlfriend. Some, like Sammy and Harvey, pretend to have left. Tropics are far for the homies... and summer promises to be very hot!

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”

Editor Thibaud Caquot shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.
